Story

A flashback to 10 years ago reveals that Franklin Hall (Graviton) joined S.H.I.E.L.D, and was tasked by Nick Fury to recreate the "Super Soldier serum". However, the experimental reactor was pushed by Hall to critical levels and Fury ordered him to shut it down. Hall refused and was nearly killed when the reactor blew. Afterwords, he discovered while in recovery that he developed superpowers from the accident, unlimited levels of gravitational manipulation. Blaming Fury for the accident, Hall prepares to escape and reek retribution on Fury. But SHIELD doses the room with gas, leaving Hall unconscious. He's then placed in high level security within the underwater prison, the "Raft".

In the present, upon the deactivation of all the super prisons, Hall awakens unaware of his surroundings and demands to know how long he's been incarcerated. Baron Zemo tells him he's been here the longest. Enraged, Hall now seeks vengeance upon Fury for the years taken away from him. He lifts the prison into the sky, and confronts Fury, who now sees him as another supervillain, calling him "Graviton".Meanwhile, Iron Man is outnumbered by old enemies at the Vault. To keep the villains from escaping, Tony self-destructs the Vault, but his armor was damaged and he radios for a replacement. Thor, Hank Pym, and Wasp fight Graviton. Later, they are joined by Hulk and Iron Man and with their combined power they defeat Graviton and form The Avengers in order to catch the remaining 74 supervillains that escaped from the four prisons.
